You do realize that VW has been shipping and selling the e-Golf EV for many years now, and in good quantities? They're all over the bay area, and seem almost as popular as the Leaf.

Porsche (a division of VW) is not vaporware in the EV space.

Porsche isn’t mainstream car. It’s a toy for riches, not for salaried employees.

Edit: I was wrong. I could lease Macan for ~700€/month.

Porsche pushes tech in the higher end cars, make it work well and reduce costs, then eventually ends up in audi's / vw's. Look at how porsche 919 hybrid is making power, its totally new.

Plenty of salaried employees buy Teslas, and Porsches are similarly priced.

Anyone can buy a Porsche with a payment plan. Unfortunately, I know someone who did.

Porsche is in the same market segment as Tesla is.

Let's see when deliveries actually happen in the US. That is next year. Also numbers are unclear on how many will be delivered.

VW is really a TON of brands, all pushing for the same thing. ITs more about adoption of vw's target market then anything.
